How to Import SIM Contacts to Infinix Hot 60i 5G Without Cloud Sync

Importing Contacts to Infinix Hot 60i 5G

• 💡 Open the standalone Contacts app on your Infinix Hot 60i 5G.
• ⚠️ Immediately deny any notification requests from the Contacts app, as they are unnecessary.
• 📌 Navigate to Organize and then select Manage SIM to begin the import process.

Managing Contact Save Locations

• 🎯 When prompted to choose where to save contacts, prioritize Device only to prevent cloud syncing.
• ☁️ Be aware that if a Google or Infinix account is signed in, the 'Device only' option might be hidden under 'More' or combined with cloud options.
• 🚫 Importing directly to the cloud (Google or Infinix) is discouraged due to privacy concerns and potential unauthorized data sharing.

Importing and Backing Up Contacts

• 📲 Select the desired contacts from your SIM card for import, leaving existing contacts deselected.
• 🚫 Do not delete contacts from the SIM card after importing; keep the SIM copy as a backup.
• 💾 To transfer contacts to other devices without cloud services, create a VCF backup file which can be emailed or moved via storage.
• 🔍 Imported contacts can be viewed in the Contacts list, and while editing might be limited for SIM-imported contacts, cloud-synced contacts offer more fields for data.
